    5         (a) Such fuel terminals may be expanded within the physical
    6  boundary of the parcel upon which the fuel terminal is located
    7  regardless of the current land use designation of the parcel.
    8         1. Local governments may adopt and enforce reasonable land
    9  development regulations for the expanded portion of the fuel

   18  compatibility-based standards to a fuel terminal owner upon the
   19  owner’s request.

   21  plan, land use map, zoning districts, or land development
   22  regulations in a manner that would conflict with a fuel
   23  terminal’s classification as a permitted and allowable use under
   24  this section, including, but not limited to, an amendment that
   25  causes a fuel terminal to be a nonconforming use, structure, or
   26  development.

   36         comprehensive plan, land use map, zoning districts, or
   37         land development regulations to make such fuel
   38         terminals a nonconforming use under the provisions
